The necropolis of Sos Laccheddos is located between the 127 bis and the Strada dell'Anglona, east of Sassari in the direction of Osilo in the province of Sassari in Sardinia .
It consists of two groups of Domus de Janas that are not far from each other. Spread over an area of around two square kilometers, the 51 Domus de Janas in the region are divided into four necropolises : Badde Inza, Calancoi, Monte Barcelona and Sos Laccheddos, all of which probably belonged to the vast prehistoric settlement of Abealzu. The numerous eneolithic materials found, as well as the findings in the necropolis of Filigosa (near Macomer ) gave the cultures of Abealzu-Filigosa their name. The necropolis has been known since the end of the 19th century and was cataloged by Giuseppe Chelo (1938–2007) in the middle of the 20th century.
The necropolis of Sos Laccheddos is located between the necropolis of Monte Barcelona and that of Calancoi . It consists of the north-west and south-east groups with 15 and eight graves respectively, almost all of which are multicellular and carved into the soft limestone . Most of the facilities are in poor condition as they were destroyed by breakthroughs and later extensions. Graves V and XV were the subject of specific investigations.
To the west is the giant tomb of Sos Laccheddos .
